This M2 Pro MacBook Pro deal is a way smarter purchase than an M3 model

Macworld

Update March 30: The B&H deal has ended but Amazon is selling a 16-inch model for greater savings.

The M3 Pro MacBook Pro is a fine laptop but it’s not that much of an upgrade over last year’s model, especially when you can save a bundle.B&H Photo is selling the 14-inch M2 Pro MacBook Pro with 512GB of storage and 16GB of RAM for $1,599, a savings of $400 and the lowest price we’ve ever seen. Amazon is selling the 16-inch M2 Pro MacBook Pro with 512GB of storage and 16GB of RAM for $2,000, a savings of $500 and the best price we’ve ever seen.

Compared to the M3 processor, the 12-core CPU/19-core GPU M2 Pro is actually a little faster in some tasks, and you’ll get twice as much RAM. Otherwise, the machines are identical, with the same excellent ProMotion displays and ports as the M3 model (three Thunderbolt ports, an SD card reader, and HDMI 2.1). You can’t get it in space black, of course, but we like the classic space gray anyway.

So if you want an excellent laptop without breaking the bank, check out this deal instead and save a bundle.
